Orem PD Facebook page reaching community through humor

By Kaitlyn Bancroft
October 27, 2017 12:00 AM
Lt. Craig Martinez uses humor on the Orem Police Department Facebook page to make its officers more relatable and approachable. In this case, Martinez photoshopped a “Hunger Games”-style beard onto a photo of himself to promote the department’s Sub-for-Santa effort, which allows male officers to grow beards and female officers to color their hair from October to December if they pay into the Sub-for-Santa fund. (Orem Police Department/Craig Martinez)
